Former China Broadcasting Corporation Chairman Zhao Shaokang stood up for Zhubei mayor candidate Qiu Chenyuan of the People’s Party, sparking controversy over violation of party discipline. Zhang Yaping, the chairperson of the Disciplinary Examination Committee, alluded to Zhao Ying on Facebook to "know where to go and retreat." He also quoted the sixth patriarch Hui Neng's verse "Where is the dust?" and questioned Zhao for turning a local problem into a national confrontation. In response, Zhao responded: "The Party Central Committee really shouldn't let dogs everywhere bite people!" Everyone is trying to mend the cracks, but the Party Central Committee does nothing and continues to make sarcastic remarks.
Zhang Yaping quoted the Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng's poem "Originally there is nothing, where is the dust" on Facebook and pointed out that some people have always said that the differences in Zhubei will spread to the whole Taiwan, as if the Central Committee of the Kuomintang is opposed to the blue-white alliance. When there are differences in Zhubei, they go to mediate. "Why stir up a local problem into a national confrontation?" People who truly care about the overall situation will see the road clearly and use their strength to integrate, so that they can achieve final victory.
Zhao Shaokang responded by saying that there are only ten days left in the election, and everyone is working hard. "The Party Central Committee really shouldn't let dogs everywhere bite people! The Party Central Committee has restrained Zhang Yaping and told him to stop talking!" The Party Central Committee is already looking for war criminals for the defeat of the election. Zhao also said bitterly, "Which of the nominees from the six KMT cities actually took the initiative to invite the Party Central Committee to give speeches on the platform?" No one wants to point it out. Do you think everyone doesn't know?
Zhao questioned, he didn’t understand what this (dust) had to do with the election? Elections are dust among the dust of the world. With Zhang Yaping’s artistic conception so high, what kind of party affairs is he doing? Forget about becoming a monk! After talking for a long time, what does it have to do with helping Taipei Mayor Jiang Wanan and New Taipei Mayor candidate Li Sichuan win votes? Will the auxiliary election be successful in this way?
Zhao Shaokang said that everyone is working hard to resolve the dispute in Zhubei. Does the Party Central Committee think everyone is stupid? Is Jiang Wanan a fool? Are all the legislators idiots? They worked hard to repair the rift, but "but the Party Central Committee did nothing and kept making sarcastic remarks." He couldn't laugh or cry. Zhao emphasized that the Party Central Committee should do its best to stitch up the rift and prevent it from turning into a scar, otherwise it will be too late to regret it.
Jiang Wanan said yesterday that the combination of blue and white is the right direction. He also accepted the invitation from the People's Party's parliamentary candidate to live broadcast together today and will continue to work with the People's Party to create more benefits for Taipei citizens.
Zheng says cross-party election support in Zhubei is okay
In a radio interview yesterday, Kuomintang Chairman Zheng Liwen was asked whether Zhao Shaokang and Jiang Wanan helped Qiu Chenyuan in the election. Is there any party discipline issue? Zheng said that county and mayor candidates in a single constituency are different from other party members. In order to maximize the number of votes, they hope to break the circle. "So we have no such restrictions on our county and mayor candidates." It is best if even the Democratic Progressive Party comes to support us, but of course it must be within a certain range. It is impossible for you to be a candidate and run to help your opponent. This is illegal.
I was asked that the Kuomintang has its own candidate for mayor in Zhubei. Is it okay to support the election across parties? Zheng Liwen said, "Yes, our regulations can be like this." But if it is to harm the Kuomintang or if there are other considerations, the Party Central Committee will handle it according to the circumstances of the case.
Are there any goals for this election? Zheng Liwen said that she is still cautiously optimistic about the KMT's election situation. In the end, there should be no danger, and basically all four parties should be able to pass the test.
